corvette stingray

The Corvette was conceptualized by Mr. Harley Earl of General Motors who thought that a 2-seater sport for the American market would be great. And on on June 30, 1953, the American Corvette was born. Its body was made from a specially tested resin. It has a steel lined fiber glass build with a separate chassis.

In 1962, the Corvette stingray was introduced. It came with a V8 5.3 liter engine with a fuel injection option that can increase its power output to 360 BHP monster output. This model made the public notice General Motors and soon enough were cheering for the Corvette Stingray as it took to the racing circuits.

It had a different appearance from its contemporaries and had this modern look that everyone was apt to notice. Its power was increased with a larger engine capacity. The Corvette Stingray ’62 model became a favorite among car collectors because of the different image that it projected-sophistication and speed.

By 1963, another modification for the Corvette was in the making and the “spilt screen” was introduced with the pop up headlights that has been the mark of the Corvette until today. The “Split Screen” only saw production for only a year though. And so it was until 1965 which gave rise to a powerful corvette 6.4 liter V8 425 BHP engine that gave such a boost in the vehicles speed staying power.

The body of the “Sting Ray” was altered in the 1968 model of the flashy car with curved steel emphasizing its different look in its series. 1969 saw the car took a different trend in name calling as it merged its two syllable name into one, making “ Sting Ray” into “Stingray “. Many alterations followed after that when government issued sanctions and control formed on cars over the years. In 1979, the production of the beautiful Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was stopped.

hummer h1

Going for a ride that is sure to show how tough you are? Then maybe the Hummer H1 is the vehicle of your choice.

The Hummer H1 is part of the Humvee or Hummer family which was originally designed for the military. This war machine has a four wheel drive capability for rough terrain and a sleek body that boasts of rugged dependability. Its original name was the High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle or the HMMWV. It was later called the Humvee, for short.

The Humvee boasted of high maneuver capacity in rough terrain including going through 30 inches of water with a 16 inch clearance off the ground. The vehicles capabilities were tried and tested in the first Gulf war and proved its worth among the soldiers who manned the sturdy war machine.

The Humvee was featured in many television write ups and the viewing public soon caught up with the Humvee fever. Because of the public’s warm and unprecedented reaction to the vehicle, AM General (the makers of the original military Humvee) decided to add up and maximize the attraction of the public to the rough and tumble machine. A civilian version in 1992 was released and was officially named the Hummer. GM (General Motors) was able to buy the rights for the Hummer name and used it to rename the vehicle the H1.

The Hummer weighs more than two family cars added together and is fuelled by a V8 engine. Its transmission is automatic and powers up its four wheel drive traction. Its’ rough image, though capable in maneuvering in terrain that will make the normal street car weep, you would not probably like to drive it on normal street conditions. Its’ large built makes it hard to maneuver in narrow streets and the size of its seats are not fitted for leisure driving because of its size (small and very uncomfortable).

shelby mustang

If you know your cars, chances are, you’d be able to identify a “Shelby Mustang” in the streets. The Shelby has been synonymous with Mustang high breed performance and is often a choice with car collectors.

Carroll Shelby joined Ford Motors in 1965 and though corroborated efforts, the first Mustang race machine created by Shelby appeared in 1965. It was soon racing the circuits and won its first win at the SCCA race in February 1965. From then, Shelby’s name became immortalized with the entry of the Shelby Mustang racers in the racing world. The Shelby GT350R became Shelby’s pet vehicle in his racing explorations.

The next race machine that appeared was the Shelby GT500 which featured a sleek design that was totally capable of outracing its peers and contemporaries. Next came the 1968 GT500-KR, so named because the letters KR stood for “King of the “Road “which was no lame moniker for this wonderful vehicle.

Carroll Shelby quit his partnership with Ford and ventured forth marking a supposedly good partnership and leaving thousands of racing and car aficionados in wonderment of the sad turn of events with the Shelby-Ford partnership. Shelby, however, made a comeback and in 2006, a special edition Shelby masterpiece cam in the market-the Shelby GTH. He soon released two more vehicles (the GT500KR and the GT500) that made waves in the racing world. Lots of fans car proved that this was indeed a fantastic piece of equipment that bore the Shelby mark.

Carroll Shelby soon announced in 2010 that he will be using his old company name again and thus, “Shelby Americans” was back in business. He emphasized this point when he revealed the new GT500 model that would soon hit the markets and prove once for all that the Shelby craftsmanship is top of the line in terms of speed, design, and performance. The 2010 release of the new Shelby model emphasized once m ore that the Mustang is a War machine to reckon with in the racing circuits. This short history of the long line of Shelby Mustang cars shows the survival of a fine line of machines that show what speed and performance is. Clearly, not one of its contemporaries can deny the fact that with the Shelby Mustang, you sure can get your money’s worth. The acquisition of such a formidable racing car is surely an edge in the race tracks.

ferrari 612 scaglietti

Motors, race cars, high stakes and fanatic motor race fans where still a bit unknown then. Gran turismo racing then was for local fans and aficionados only. In these days of super jets and concords, even racers from the other side of the globe can join a race in a matter of minutes.

With the hundreds of luxury sports car joining the motor sports world today, the Ferrari 612 Scaglieti arrived in just the nick of time to provide a more exciting competition for the others. Named in honor of Sergio Scaglieti (a modenese coach-builder), this fantastic race machine can hold its own on the race track.
Although Ferrari says it was inspired by the Ferrari 375MM of the 1950's which was specifically commissioned by Roberto Rosselini as a present to actress Ingrid Bergman, the Ferrari 612 Scaglieti does not look that good in terms of design and visual impact (not to some anyway). What makes it exciting to have is its roomy interior that can house up to four adult persons (a 2 by 2 seat build). Built at 6 feet and 3 inches, it fits comfortably with ease.

The Ferrari 612 has a549bhp V2 engine that goes with a 5.7 liter power up. Its hefty 1,840 kg weight is contained by an aluminum space frame and body that helps keep the weight down. Almost 85 percent of the car's build is inside its wheelbase. The Ferrari 612 can reach 60 miles per hour within 4.1 seconds. Somewhat like an impossible feat for a sports car with kind of built, but it does accelerate within that time span.

Its maneuverability is fantastic and the barking and body control that comes with it is easy and almost perfect. Offered at the car market on a £170,000 tag price, the Ferraro 612 Scaglieti sure can deliver the speed and grace it was built for luxury cars.

cadillac cts

This is an extremely good-looking car having made the headlines with many fashion reviews. It comes with in-depth work on design done by the famed Nürburgring test track. This car is aimed as a class leader for the connoisseurs of quality wheels. It is a luxury car of the mid sized range and largely credited for bringing the much-needed zest into the flagging Cadillac image.

Not only did it reinvigorate the brand, it won the accolade to be considered the best ever-American car ever made. Substantial improvements have been made to the Cadillac CTS from earlier Cadillac’s in terms of materials quality and interior design. These improvements have made it an excellent luxury sedan. Spoiling the driver the Cadillac CTS is a stylish and classy performer. Despite being slightly bigger in terms of the other cars, it holds equally well with drive quality and prowess as its competitors. . The balance of beauty and performance being one of the foremost reasons for the huge rave reviews and accolades it is being afforded even internationally. It has been named into the ten best list of the ‘Car and Driver’ for three years running.

Available in Sedan, Coupe, and Sport Wagon styles the 2011 Cadillac CTS has ranked 8th out of 19 of the mid sized car range researched rankings. It is indeed a top tier vehicle, which needs serious consideration from those looking for the combinative elegance of a sports look and an elegant all round profile. The thumb downs have been for the front seats. It is felt that they lack support for a vehicle touted with sporting intentions. The option for those in that category would be to go for sport seats that are standard fitting for the performance CTS-V model. A test drive would convince the potential buyer of the need for the extra expenditure, as the overall review does not always support this thumb down.

porsche cayenne

The styling of the Porsche Cayenne gets some mixed reviews. For some it is somewhat ungainly but for others it’s a viable option for those who prefer to drive a sports vehicle yet have to compensate to accommodate family needs. It has even been called a sexy and powerful alternate to a mini van. In a researched ranking of 17 midsized SUVs’ the 2011 Porsche Cayenne came out at no 7, which is quite impressive. Even ardent critics will agree that the Porsche Cayenne has proven its worthiness of the Porsche image. For those drivers concerned about the fuel economy and environmental impact a hybrid model has been put on offer as well.

The Porsche Cayenne is an opportunity for a spirited drive with a super dual-range all-wheel-drive system, and a cracking sharp steering with superb breaks. A proactive drive system which is highly sophisticated is standard ensuring both gearings at high- and the low-range. On road-Off road capability is deeply enhanced by locking rear differential, skid plates and disconnected hydraulically stabilizer bars. The limitations would be the spacing. It is not the most practical or family-friendly. The cargo area is small and the lack of a third-row seat option limit its functionality.

The elegant cabin tradition of the Porsches continues with the Cayenne. The driver can sit with high perspective in highly comfortable seats. The typical Porsche's sports cars center-mounted tachometer and steering wheel with three-spoke gives the feel of sports vehicle compatibility to this SUV. The quality of material is outstanding in the cabin.

The down reviews have also been for the fussy ergonomics, insufficient acceleration, and tight legroom space for rear seaters. Despite its impressive record of off-road apparatus rock crawling is not its forte like that of the competitors. The low shaped tires most suited for on road should largely be blamed for this disappointment. Nevertheless the Porsche Cayenne a sophisticated and admirable SUV.

For those who seek their thrills on four wheels the Subaru WRX is the performance machine that fits perfectly. An all-wheel drive vehicle, this turbocharged Impreza is available as a sedan or a wagon. Either way the 265 base horsepower of the WRX will give the speed freak the opportunity to feel what the Formula champion feels. On this score this performance-tuned car can fully satisfy. With quick acceleration and super road handling the car should still be recommended only to the totally confident driver. Racing from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 4.7 seconds should not be risked with others. This is underscored that in maneuvering the grip can be found to be tenacious and has tendency to under steer.

The suspension systems are performance-tuned and independent. The all wheel distributes drive torque equally to the front and rear wheels. With an effective system where should the front or rear wheels slip automatically the center differential compensates by sending power to the wheels with most traction Though fast and powerful and with dream type handling it is still affordable. The trims are fantastic in keeping with the likings of the rally community. It features a turbo-charged drive train, wider low-profile tires, larger brakes, and firmer, higher-quality suspension components.

The four-cylinder Subaru Boxer engine that generates 265-horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 244 pound-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm it is connected to a fully synchronized five-speed manual transmission. It comes along with engine-speed-sensing variable power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering and Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) cum Traction Control System (TCS). Subaru’s recommended economy standards for the WRX in terms of city and highway are 25/18 mpg and 23/17 respectively. Given the performance of the car the drive quality is acceptable if anyone could consider that in the midst of the adrenalin rush. The noise levels however have raised some concern.
